Solar wars gamemode for arcade

I think hive should add a new original gamemode to arcade called Solar wars
I’ll explain how it works
GAME MECHANICS
SETTING
Solar wars would take place in space on rocks
Each team would start on a small rock with a ship that has a station in it.
SPACE SHOP
In this station you can buy and upgrade stuff such as a space suit or your oxygen tank
OXYGEN TANK
Each person would have 3 lives and a oxygen tank if this tank runs out or you get killed you lose a life. Each time you get killed your oxygen tank becomes weaker (tank can be repaired in station)
CURRENCY
To buy, upgrade, or repair things from the shop you need iron
You can get iron by surviving (collects for every few seconds alive)
Killing players, collect them in crates (found on space rocks) or by
Capturing and collecting a planets resources, by capturing a planet you can also collect scrap which can get stronger items and upgrades
PLANET CAPTURES
Within the maps there will be multiple planets that you can capture to earn its resources (iron and scrap) during the game you will hold 2 flags
That you can put on planets, if someone steals a planet that you had a flag on the flag gets damaged and returned to you
CRATES
on planets and space rocks there will be small crates that will have resources depending on the crate value

  • CHEAP CRATES
    these crates would have blocks, arrows, and wooden tools
    (Found on the starting rocks)

  • MEDIUM CRATES
    This crates would have more blocks, bow and arrows, stone tools, and oxygen potions that will give more air

  • MID CRATES
    in the middle of the map there is a large planet with valuable mid crates
    These crates have blocks, bow and arrows (with enchantment) iron tools
    Oxygen potions and suffocation potions that would steal oxygen from a player

  • BOSS CRATES
    similar to sky wars there will be a giant boss crate in the middle that spawns every few minutes with diamond tools, oxygen and suffocation potions, bow/arrows with enchantment, spellbooks (fire, speed, or life)

(I WILL UPDATE THESE MECHANICS FROM FEEDBACK)
XP/UNLOCKS
Solar wars will have 30 levels with unlocks for each level
HOW TO GAIN XP

  • 10 xp per kill

  • 15 xp per planet capture

  • 20 xp for destroying boss crate

  • 5 xp per minute of survival (must leave spawn to activate for no afk grind)

  • 50 xp for win
    UNLOCKS
    Solar wars would have custom unlocks such as
    FLAG DESIGNS
    Some examples are space rock, rocket, fire, and planet
    SPACE SUIT DESIGNS (your armor)
    Some examples are fire, royal, alien, Astronaut
    KILL EFFECTS
    Some examples are, planet crumble, boom, and vaporized
    KILL MESSAGES
    Some examples are
    [player] got crumbled away by [player]
    [Player] VAPORIZER [player]
    [Player] suffocated [player]
    HUBTITLES
    some hub title examples are
    Capture The Planet, Oxygen Stealer, Space Warrior, Solar Champion
    AVATARS
    Happy Planet, Captured Planet, Oxygen Tank, King Solar
    COSTUME
    Max level in Solar Wars would give you the SOLAR KING costume
    Here is a very basic version of the costume, it can have an oxygen tank on the back too

I would love to hear your feedback on this idea, I know it isn’t the best developed yet but I might edit it as I get feedback, I would make concept art but I’m not an artist. I am designing multiple game ideas currently this is only one of them Thanks for reading!

Hello @masonmasterbot Thanks for taking your time to write this post!

And will there be a way to gain hearts?

So at the start you automatically get 2 flags?

I dont think wooden tools would be a great idea since no gamemode has a wooden sword. (Exept skywars)

Then whats the point of:

?

Could you explain to me what the enchantments there are? Since if its power 5 or infinity it will become too op and everyone will rush mid.

My thoughts:

If diamond items only come from boss chests, then people can camp the middle and get OP items.

Oh god… this is bad… uhhhhh and also i thought my post was long

To answer a few questions
At start you have 2 flags that are used to capture planets
Also the point of oxygen potions is to survive outside for longer and the repair is if you died and the tank got damaged from that
I’m still unsure about the enchantments and ways to gain health
Sorry if I’m confusing

Oh okay. No your not confusing, thanks for the info! I will reconsider my thoughts and i will reply to this topic if i think there are any difficulties and questions i wanna ask abt this topic.

Happy Hiving!

Wait who? Never heard of it

Sorry i havent replied to this post in a while, but will there be a way to gain hearts?
And so,

So if you die, the oxygen tank gets damage causing less oxygen that we can get? (For example if we have 50 oxygen, if we die do we get like 40 oxygen for the limit of the tank?)

16

Yes something like that.

17

This seems like a game that would cause me to have a panic attack

18

The skywas doesn’t have wooden sword, the hide & seek does.

19

Sky Wars used to have one before the Ember Swird replaced it

I have created a basic design of the solar king costume for this game.
